The Dollhouse

If you follow the Facebook page, then you may have seen this first pic several weeks ago...and I wish I could tell you it was way easier than it looks...but honestly, it wasn't. My first clues, of course; were the two different price tags hanging above it in Hobby Lobby...

$99.00 in the box.

$330.00 assembled.

I'll confess, it probably would have been worth every penny to be assembled.

I remember my parents buying me one as a kid. My aunt and I worked on it for days trying to put it together. I don't remember ever finishing the house or playing with it. So I can imagine it was a task to put together. Your's turned out great!

I bought one of those kits about 20 years ago (for myself... no kid involved). I guess it got sold at a yardsale, or donated to the thrift shop, or thrown in the trash. All I remember is that I never got far with it! Congratulations on your success! It's beautiful.

I should have given you all the wooden furniture I have for my old doll house! Don't think we'll be needing it! :) Don't you always wonder why there are no stairs to the 3rd floor? I'm pretty sure mine was that way too! Love it!

I am nearly finished assembling this exact same kit! I really enjoyed seeing how you arranged the furniture. I was really struggling with that in the living room (because of the stairs). I'm doing mine kinda mid-century-ish (I left off the gingerbread trim).
